Sink repair in Heckfield Green, done in place

A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage to blend with the surrounding glaze. Common call-outs are for an antique basin with chips and a chipped basin edge, on enamelled basins, vanity unit basins and Belfast and butler sinks.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin

A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Repairing versus replacing in Heckfield Green

Finding the same basin again is not always possible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Our sink repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Why book with us

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

Take a look at our full price list.

Repairs by material

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

What we can’t put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • Leaks from the fittings

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

  • Enamelled basins
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks

10 questions to ask before you book

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

How to get a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
